Book Release Calendar

Oh my goodness, I have a new
obsession: adding titles to the Book Release Calendar. Up until last week, I
recorded forthcoming titles in a private Google document. I was not very good about
updating it, though. I always remember the release dates for books advertised
around the library, in bathrooms, and in the foyer. I have a rule in my school
library: if a book is advertised somewhere in the school, it is entered in the
library catalog and ready for holds. I welcome holds. I love holds. Holds
rock! The books advertised around the school always stick in my head. Like
clockwork, you will find me every Tuesday at Anderson’s Bookshop buying new
books.

With the new Book Release
Calendar, I will never forgot a much-anticipated release. I hope you find it useful. Happy Reading!
